Taking your 1500 horsepower twin turbo Corvette out for a triple digit test drive on public roads is far from the smartest thing to do, but it doesn't make it any less entertaining to watch.

This amazing 50-170MPH sprint was actually recorded earlier this year while the car was racing a 1200 horsepower Dodge Viper. As you can see the Corvette spent the whole time out ahead despite running into a bit of a traction issue around 80 MPH.

We'd love to take a turn behind the wheel of this 1500 horsepower monster but given the opportunity we'd probably do what these guys should have—take the car to a track.
